Maelstrom, GLTron, and Airburst (shareware, I know, but pretty cheap).

Have you tried the original Escape Velocity? Highly addictive, but don't try EV Override and EV Nova first ;)
(maybe I've asked you before?)

Yea, but I was truly disappointed when I saw the actual game, after the awesome startup screen :D

Yes, it does. That's so addictive.

I really really really enjoy GetAmped. Search for it at macgamefiles.com

Jedi Knight 2...

:D

But then again we are talking about free games here... Hmmmm!

MacMame+Thousands of ROMS...

:p

Nope! This isn't either... :rolleyes:

Doom Legacy! That's it! A great free game! An all time classic too! :D ;)

a great game is found here : http://www.medievia.com . before just closing your browser tab though, read through a little, and before completely dismissing the game go to http://solidsun.com/cm/ and then connect to the game (directions are on the homepage).
it's a real deep game, if you like warcraft and starcraft and strategy games like that you can really get into medievia.

Medevia used to be a big hit in our support department. We were actually hosting the server that ran that MUD. I wonder if we still do. I never played it on my Mac or got to involved in it.
